Ch.6 - I Dream of Luna

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I continued falling into the dark abyss, that strangely seemed familiar. I closed my eyes a short while later, hoping that it will just end. After a while, I noticed that I landed on something. I opened my eyes to see a mural straight from Kingdom Hearts, only it was of me.

"Well then, this just got really complicated." I smirked (you know why, if you're a fan of KH).

The mural colors were black and blue, with me in the center wielding masamune. Though, there were two blank circles next to me.

"What am I doing in my heart anyways?" I waited for the empty voice to speak.

Nothing came... it was just... silent. I was just standing around waiting for something to happen.

That was until I finally heard something.

"Well this is an interesting dream, to say the least."

However it didn't sound empty. I turned around to see Luna, still magically exhausted but this time wearing an elegant robe similar to Celestia's but it was black. Just like her sister, it hugged her tightly, showing off them curves.

"Lu-Luna?! I... didn't quite expect you to be here." I said with a confused expression.

"What? You said you were familiar with our lives, so surely you must've known of my dream walking ability, no?"

"I did know, though I didn't realize you'll be doing it right now. I thought you needed some sort of magic to that."

"Dream walking is a natural ability that I possess. I don't need magic to be able to do it."

"Okay then but why did you check up on me?"

"Well, I didn't really get to talk to you all that much and... I also wanted to hear why I'm your favorite princess." I nodded, beckoning her to continue. "So I decided to speak to you directly in your dreams but I didn't quite realize you were this self absorbed." She said while looking around.

"Hey, I'm not self absorbed." She pointed towards the mural below us. "Look, this place is just a... how should I put this. There is something called Kingdom Hearts in my world which is a story. In this story, usually in the very beginning, you are transported into this place," I motioned around me, "also known to be one's heart. This just so happens to be my heart."

"This... is your heart?" She stared at the mural while saying that.

"Yes... I think. The story is very complicated. Anyways you wanted to talk, right?" She nodded, "Well, I sort of wish we were in a better area than this. In fact I had the perfect area in mind."

Just as I said that, a bright pink door appeared out of nowhere.

"Where did that door come from and why does it lead to nowhere?" Said Luna as she inspected the back of the "pointless" door.

"In the story, it lead to where your heart needed to go. As to why or where I'm not sure." I said.

'The door appeared because you wanted to visit to a certain location.'

"Who said that? Show yourself!" Luna demanded.

"Relax it was just Yami, I'll tell you more about him. But, what he says is true, then follow me." I said while grabbing onto the handles.

Luna gotten behind me, and I pulled open the doors. When I opened it however, a light came out, blinding us both.


When the light died down, we opened our eyes to see that we're on an island at night time.

"Sweet! We're actually on Private Oasis." I said while taking in the scene.

Luna was stunned to see this, "Where are we exactly?"

"Oh, well you see, there's another story called Legend of Zelda, this one in particular being Wind Waker. It is taken place in the Great Sea and the island we are on at the moment is called Private Oasis. And since you're here, I made it night time. So what do you think?" I said while crossing my arms triumphantly.

"This is so beautiful. I've never seen anything like this before. Though... you have the star formations all wrong."

"So then, I guess our star formations are different then. How about I'll tell you them. After I had answer your questions of course."

"Different star formation... I would love to hear them but yes, of course my questions."

"Come, why don't we take a seat." I said while offering my hand. She gained a small blush but took my hand none the less.

We walked through the water, to the raised platform with two chairs. I went up first and pulled her up to me and we both took a seat.

"So then what's your questions."

"It's just one really." She took a deep breath, "Why am I your favorite princess? What's to like about me..." she looked at her hands, twiddling her thumbs.

I looked at her, "Luna... there are many reasons to like you."

"Like what? All I do is bring darkness over Equestria." She was starting to tear up.

I looked towards the moon, "No. You don't bring darkness to Equestria." She was about to say something but I continued with what I had to say. "Look at the moon" she looked towards it, "and tell me what you see."

"... It's just the moon... and... my prison."

I shook my heard, "How about I'll tell you what I see. There's light, hope, inspiration," I turn towards her, " beauty. What I'm trying to say is... yes there is darkness" she looked down, "but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing."

She looked at me again, "What do you mean?"

"I'm saying, what you bring isn't what you think you bring. You believe that your darkness is evil but in actuality your darkness is beauty. You bring something forth that is awe inspiraring, just look at the countless stars that twinkle, look at the moon that reflects light." I spread my arms out for more effect.

She smiled, "Thank you for that." Though that smile soon fell, "But... nopony else thinks like that and they hate me for it."

"Does it really matter what others think? You bring out the night and make a masterpiece out of it, you love it. So why does other people's opinion have to do with it. Yeah it'll be nice for everyone to cheer you on, but in the end, you have to ask yourself. Are you doing this because you like it or are you doing it because they like it You do it because you like it and even if they don't enjoy it, they need it."

She brightened up a lot from what I said, "What do you mean they need it?"

I snickered "You try going to sleep when the sun never goes down." She giggled. "But in all seriousness, the day for everything needs to work and the night for everything needs to sleep. There needs to be a balance."

She seemed to understand this, "Thank you Wilby, I really needed to hear that."

"Hey, no problem. I'll always be there for you." She blushed once more.

"You still haven't answered why I'm your favorite."

"Many reasons, such as, I can actually enjoy watching your moon but if I watched the sun, I'll go blind." She giggled once more. "But, for the actual reason to why you're my favorite... is, well, because..." I look towards the night sky. "I love your beautiful night, you are loads of fun and really... I just like you for who you are."

She blushed madly from that, "Th-thank you... it means a lot to me."

We just sat there, quietly watching the night sky, enjoying the gentle breeze and sound of the calm waves.

"So then... how about I tell you about those constellations."

We spent the rest of the time talking aout the constellations in the sky. Talking about the lesser ones and the bigger ones, such as the zodiac signs and what they mean. But all good things must come to an end.

"I'm sorry Wilby but morning is slowly approaching. I must be leaving soon." She said while getting up.

"There's no need to apologize, you do have some catching up to do and the kingdom. Besides, you can always visit anytime when I'm asleep." I said while getting up to give my goodbyes.

"And I'll be sure to visit, until next time."

Right before she left my dream however, she walked towards me and gave me a kiss on the cheek, making us both blush. Difference was, she was smiling and I was surprised. With one last giggle she left me to my dream.

I placed a hand on the cheek she kissed, "Until next time..."


Author's Note

I hope you enjoyed this sweet moment between Luna and Wilby. Also I tried really hard to not get to deep about talking about day and night because if I were to do that, it would've gotten confusing. Anyways I hope you enjoyed and can't wait for demonstrations of blade and spear tomorrow.
